Pim-1 kinase protects the liver from ischemia reperfusion injury by regulating dynamics-related protein 1. iScience 2024; 27:110280. [PMID: 39055921 PMCID: PMC11269306 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2024.110280] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 06/13/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury significantly impacts liver transplantation success, yet current treatments remain inadequate. This study explores the role of Proto-oncogene serine/threonine-protein kinase (Pim-1) in liver IR, an area previously unexplored. Utilizing a mouse liver IR in vivo model and a MIHA cell hypoxia-reoxygenation in vitro model, we observed that Pim-1 expression increases following IR, inversely correlating with serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels. Increased Pim-1 expression stabilizes mitochondrial membranes by modifying Drp1 phosphorylation, reducing mitochondrial fission and apoptosis, thereby mitigating liver damage. Additionally, we discovered that elevated Pim-1 expression is dependent on the trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 9 during liver IR. These findings underscore the importance and potential clinical application of targeting Pim-1 in treating hepatic IR, presenting a novel therapeutic avenue.

[PMID: 36305096 DOI: 10.1002/jmv.28259] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2022] [Revised: 08/23/2022] [Accepted: 10/25/2022] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
The interferon-inducible protein with tetrapeptide repeats 3 (IFIT3) is one of the most important members in both the IFIT family and interferon-stimulated genes family. IFIT3 has typical features of the IFIT family in terms of gene and protein structures, and is able to be activated through the classical PRRs-IFN-JAK/STAT pathway. A variety of viruses can induce the expression of IFIT3, which in turn inhibits the replication of viruses, with the underlying mechanism showing its crucial role in antiviral innate immunity. Emerging studies have also identified that IFIT3 is involved in cellular biology changes, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, differentiation, and cancer development. In this review, we summarize the characteristics of IFIT3 with respect to molecular structure and regulatory pathways, highlighting the role of IFIT3 in antiviral innate immunity, as well as its diverse biological roles. We also discuss the potential of IFIT3 as a biomarker in disease diagnosis and therapy.

[PMID: 30321735 DOI: 10.1016/j.molimm.2018.10.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2018] [Revised: 09/29/2018] [Accepted: 10/01/2018] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Previous studies demonstrate that the number of induced regulatory T cells (iTregs) increases in aged mice. However, these studies do not characterize iTregs across different ages or how these immune modulators contribute to the dysregulation of immunity in murine disease models. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the relationship between age and iTreg function using a mouse model of hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). In this model, aged-mice suffered more serious injury than Young-mice, with higher serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and higher histological scores from liver biopsies. iTregs isolated from Young-mice exhibited stronger immunosuppressive ability in vitro and had a greater response during IRI in vivo. In addition, aged-mice that were pretreated with iTregs generated in Young-mice (Y-iTregs) had alleviated injury compared with mice pretreated with iTregs from aged-mice (A-iTregs) or no treatment group. Adoptive transfer of iTregs ameliorated liver IRI and promoted liver recovery with decreased levels of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and interleukin-17 (IL-17). These results demonstrate that the exacerbated IRI observed in aged-mice is a result of decreased iTreg function. Therefore, improving iTreg function is important for disease treatment in elder patients.
